Snowman pop-up card

I used the new Inky Antics Penguin stamp set for this Christmas card -- I think the grandkids will love it! The printed cardstock was used for the inside of the card (looks like little snowflakes falling from the blue sky) -- like the effect this has on the snowman! The card front mats were made from two coordinating glittered cardstocks and a red ribbon with silver glitter circles for that little bit of bling. Watercolor pencils were used for the penguins, snowman hat, and branch along with a blender pen to soften the colors. The penguin on the front was attached using dimensional dots to give it a little lift off the paper. This one was time consuming -- but definitely worth it!!
The teddy bear in the background is one of my creations from this past fall craft season -- love him!
